Start Preamble

Consistent with Departmental policy, 28 CFR 50.7, and under Section 122(d) of CERCLA, 42 U.S.C. 9622(d), notice is hereby given that a proposed consent decree in United States v. Yaworski,Inc., et al., Civ. No. 3:99cv626 (PCD), was lodged on August 2, 2000 with the United States District Court for the District of Connecticut. The Consent Decree concerns hazardous waste contamination at the Yaworski Lagoon Superfund Site (the “Site”), located off Packer Road in Canterbury, Connecticut. The Consent Decree would resolve the liability for reimbursement of response costs incurred and to be incurred by the United States in connection with the Site as to the defendants against whom the United States filed a complaint on behalf of the United States Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) as well as two other related entities and would also resolve certain claims that the United States asserted under the Federal Debt Collection Act, 28 U.S.C. 3001et seq., and the Federal Priority Statute, 31 U.S.C. 3701et seq. The Consent Decree requires the settling defendants to reimburse the EPA Hazardous Substance Superfund $1,425,000 for its costs pertaining to the Site.
